Weekly Ride Schedule
Saturday 1:00pm (Club Run)
Club Run - 1:00pm from the club house. Destination varies but paced to the slowest rider with a cafe stop half way. Typically we get 25 riders on these rides and they are a pleasant afternoon of sociable riding. This ride contributes to the club run competition.
Saturday Club Runs Autumn 2010
Sunday 8:30am (Training Ride)
Training Ride - from the club house. Destination varies. Typical distance is 60 miles (4 hours) at a steady high pace. The idea of these rides is to increase fitness ready for the start of the racing season in March.
Sunday 10:00am (Club Run)
Club Run - 10:00am from the club house. Destination varies but paced to the slowest rider. Typically we get 20 riders on these rides and they are a pleasant afternoon of sociable riding. These rides are typically longer than the Saturday rides which is why they leave earlier. This ride contributes to the club run competition.
Tuesday 7.00pm (Training Ride)
Training ride from 7pm to 8pm from the club using the old chain gang course which is hillier than the Delta Lakes course. Usually smaller group than the Delta Lakes chain gang.
Wednesday 7.30pm (Club night)
Fast group ride leaving from the club house approximately 8pm for 10-15 miles comprising of a flat 1 mile lap based on the coast road by Lidl. Road bike ride with lights a requirement on dark winter nights (lap is lit but link road to and from club to lap is not). Fast ride and very exciting. This ride is not a club run and does not contribute to club run points. It is a fast ride that does not pace to the slowest rider. This is not for everyone and if you are not interested in fast riding then there is no shame in staying behind for lots of tea in the clubhouse and a good social evening to enjoy.
Thursday 7pm (Club Time Trial)
A club time trial event takes place in this slot from the beginning of April until the end of August. Events vary in length each week. They are mostly held in and around Pembrey but there is also a 10 mile that takes place in Penclawdd on the Gower from time to time. To check what time trial is taking place this week, click on the Events tab on the navigation bar at the top of the page and click on the correct year under the Time Trials heading. PLEASE NOTE: The time noted here is when the first rider starts the time trial. To take part you need to arrive at least 15 mins before this time to sign on. Club time trials are done by riders of all ages and abilities so do not feel as if you do not have the ability to take part. If you would like to try a time trial please feel free to come down. For senior and veteran riders there is a time trial levy which is payable for the entire season or you can pay one off on the night. For more information please contact our Time Trial Secretary Phil Jones, who can found under the Contact Us tab at the top of the page.
